I really enjoy using targets for all of my data analysis projects, especially because it helps me structure all of the projects nicely in the same folder.For targets projects, I often produce several figures using ggplot2.However, there are no formal recommendations for saving ggplot2 objects (as opposed to static images) in a targets workflow.

Two new packages! We released two new packages that we are using in r-universe to render package documentation: postdoc and prismjs. The goal of postdoc is very simple: generate beautiful single-page package manuals in HTML format. Postdoc uses our prismjs and katex packages for server-side highlighting and math.

Summary This post is about the surprising uses I’ve noticed and the questionsabout the censo2017 R package, a tool foraccessing the Chilean census 2017 data, I’ve gotten since it was peer-reviewedthrough rOpenSci one year ago. The originalpost about thepackage one year ago didn’t cover the different examples I present here,including a Python port of the R package.

In this post I will provide some examples of what has changed between rtweet 0.7.0 and rtweet 1.0.2.I hope both the changes and this guide will help all users.I highlight the most important and interesting changes in this blog post, and for a full list of changes you can consult it on the NEWS.

Say you have a bug report or feature request to make to a package.How can you use information on GitHub to manage your expectations (will there be a quick fix) and actions (should you go ahead and fork the repository)?In this post, we shall go over sources of information and explain how they can be used.In the end, there is no magical recipe, except perhaps graciousness, as software is made by humans.

Anyone can contribute a software package to the rOpenSci suite as long as it fits our scope (research lifecycle software and statistical software) for a transparent, constructive, nonadversarial and open review.

Following our recent post on “Safeguards and Backups for GitHub Organizations”, nearly one month ago we went one step further and made two-factor authentication (2FA) required for all members and outside collaborators of our main organization, ropensci.It was a timely decision as GitHub since then announced it will require all users who contribute code on GitHub.com to enable one or more forms of two-factor authentication (2FA) by the end of

Did you know that GitHub lets you refer to the default branch of any repository by substituting the branch name with HEAD in the url? This is a very useful trick to write robust code that works regardless of whether the default branch is called main or master, and will keep working when the default branch gets renamed at some point.

R-universe now has search! We made a series of structural improvements in r-universe to make it easier to browse and discover interesting R packages and articles. Most notably, the r-universe.dev landing page has been overhauled: you can now search directly for any name or keyword across the entire ecosystem: The homepage also lists the popular topics and organizations, and links to recently active packages, articles, and maintainers.
